Sageburg County won a maiden point in Ireland in February and changed hands later for £42,000. Major Fortune attracted market support at Taunton in March and, despite running green, found only one too good. Go To War cost €100,00 and hails from a yard that do well in this sphere but FINGLE BRIDGE also has a really nice pedigree for jumping and is likely to be ready for this. Robynson is also worth a second look along with Wee Tony.
